If the forcedeth doesn't work, it's either not using the nvidia mac

Dear Trevor,

Thank you VERY much, because this motherbord works now fine with Thinstation 2.3b2.
The NIC driver is forcedeth.
The sound driver is snd-hda-intel

However, some problems remain :
   - I can't write to USB sticks (rather annoying...)
   - The package www does not work : when I type http://[IP address] the explorer returns "httpd: bind: Address already in use". when I type http://[IP address]:6800 the explorer returns "This page can not be displayed"
   - The video drver is VESA although there is 'package xorg6-nv' in build.conf
   - Sometimes, when I type 'Del' (french keyboard), the task manager appears...

Can you give me some tips ?

Best regards

Gasel
